No, I don’t remember it at all, but thank you for sharing this hilarious moment with me. I feel no second hand embarrassment whatsoever.

I was on a packed commuter train once and in the silence this conversation happened

Seated guy (loudly): Are you pregnant?

Standing woman: Sorry?

Sg: I said are you pregnant?

Sw: No

Sg: Oh okay

The second hand cringey embarrassment of that interaction has stayed with me for about 25 years

Maybe someone on the spectrum wondering if they should give up their seat?

I think it was done with the very best of intentions, what it taught me is that you should either just go ahead and give up your seat or hang on to it, it’s the asking that makes things worse.

London transport introduced the little “baby on board” badges shortly after this, which simplified matters hugely.

Alternatively, simply asking if someone would like your seat or if they’d like to sit down works wonders. If they need it, they’ll accept. The question of whether they’re pregnant doesn’t actually matter, it’s whether they’d like to sit down that’s important. Bonus, this works for the old or infirm as well!

I try not to learn about Paris Hilton.

Paris Hilton is legitimately smart as fuck and cashed in on her looks two literal decades before other women started doing it.

She’s made literal billions with the help of also having literal billions sure but she basically birthed influencers.

Dude… are you like 17? Do you not know any other women who cashed in on their looks before her? That’s not “smart as fuck”. There are literal people who got rich off of sex tapes based on their looks. holy fuck.

She might have gotten rich (like other rich people do) but she didn’t birth shit, except awful music. Documentary, by omfg, you’re going to tell me she is not going to market herself positively, in her own fucking documentary.

While he didn’t word it great, it is funny how easily people are fooled by her facade. Like it or not she is indeed a bit of a marketing genius, and not remotely stupid. She’s essentially like Will Ferrell and always in character if cameras are nearby.
